This is a great volume that Logos shipped last year ... each NT book has a different discourse author and perspective. Plus, it's quite affordable.

Most authors, not only analyze each book as a whole, but look at individual passages, many with diagrams. It's also a great addition to the Lexham discourse dataset.

But! The book isn't Bible-indexed. What to do?

Of course, the answer is, use the Logos CitedBy tool. And then, link the tool to the desired Bible (with the discourse visual filter, if you have it).

Initially, I was going to apply the CitedBy tool to all my discourse resources (tagged). But that was a bit of a mess. Just using the Discourse Analysis volume above works better.
